The Boys had its moments, it wasn't perfect but at least, it was engaging. Then along came Gen V. It feels, to this reviewer, more like a basic teenie drama, with a few super hero add ons, than anything else. I found the first episode, unwatchable. Not helped at all by the nasty period blood thing. In summary, a uninspiring teenie drama with a vague super hero vibe. NOTE: I read the other "review", such as it is and yes I did watch part of the first episode, making accurate reference to aspects of that episode. I was pretty clear, why I do not like it, too.

Don't listen to the MovieGuys review AT ALL. It doesn't even sound like they watched The Boys throughout. If you loved the boys, you will love Gen V. Yes it is a bit disturbing, but so was the boys.

Not as good as the Boys, somewhat more predictable due to the "teenage" college setting and the characters are nowhere near as likable as Hughie, Butcher, Frenchie, MM and Kimiko With that out the way; GenV is a decent enough spin off, it does nothing new nor does it add anything to The Boys universe. But it isn't painful to watch, very much on the fence regarding the want to watch a second season. 6/10

## **Updated Review for *Gen V* (2023) – Following Season 2** **Updated Score: 10/10 – A Perfect, Unifying Masterpiece** My original 8/10 review for *Gen V* was based on the brilliant, unhinged promise of its first season. Having now witnessed the completion of **Season 2, the show has not only fulfilled that promise but has exploded it into something greater, earning a flawless score.** This season accomplishes the rare feat of elevating its own narrative while seamlessly weaving itself into the fabric of its parent series, culminating in one of the most **satisfying, forward-thinking, …
